We have two web servers, Serv1 and Serv2.
I have an asp (//Servx/asp/someasp.asp) page in both servers that execute a script (//Serv1/script/somescript.vbs) in Serv1 and create a logfile (//Serv1/log/logfile.txt)in Serv1.
I used to be able to run it in both servers, but now I can not run the script in Serv2.
No error message and wscript PID is in Serv2 task manager.

Set WshShell = Server.CreateObject("WScript.shell")
WshShell.Run "wscript.exe //Serv1/script/somescript.vbs"

I checked my mapping on Serv2 and any other security I can think of with no avail.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
 
I am losing my hair fast.
I really would appreciate it if anybody can throw their two cents on this. Thanks.
 
What changed on Serv2? WshShell is normally marked "dangerous", so my guess is: firewall, security settings, ntfs rights, etc. If you did not change the ASP script, you better post the question in another forum.
 
Thanks foxbox.

After much testing, I figured out the problem but unfortunately not the solution.

When I launched the page in Serv2 web server, the page can not configure the computer names (Serv1 and Serv2).
